painful illness, Dr. W. R. Best de
parted this life at the residence of his

sadness attending the death of those.
standing as if at the threshold" of life
ready an willing to meet- and dis-
uuues ana responsiDiuties.
This is especially so in the departure

A few years ago he entered upon
the' studyof medicine with Dr. Albert
Anderson, of Wilson, and after a year
c 1 j .1:1 .
,u uuigeni stuay ne went
to the University of Virginia for the
purpose of completing his course.
1
He ?aid to his relatives and friends
that he would succeed in his work or
spend his life in the effort. He did
both.
'After graduation - he pursued a
course in New York, and being thus
fully equipped Dr. Best began his
work at Henderson, N. C, under the
. ' I
most favorable auspices. Full of zeal
for his profession and hoDe of success
Lhe began his life work. The work
necessary for preparation had so
strained his system and its force that
at the first ; approach of disease he
found himself unable to battle for his
life. ;; ; f . ' ' ' - . . - "
With a heart crushed with disap
pointment, but with resignation-to the
will of the great Physician, he came
back to those who loved him, and
after a few months of suffering on his
part; and tender careand sympathy
on theirs he passed into the great be
yond. He rests well on the other
snore, and while we grieve that he is
no more ot in the flesh, we rtjoi:e
that he was a man. of faith in the
power and willingness of the great
Physician of Souls to heal from all
disease and cleanse from ;t!l sins.
To his parents we extend our ten-
derest sympathies. He made a ood
fioht and showed himself'-'- ;i man ;
There is much in the way ot his tak
